SUMMARY:

In the first republic, from 1923 onwards, initiatives emerged in different parts of Brazil
to celebrate Teachers' Day and attempts were made to make the commemorative
date official. However, it was only in 1963 that Federal Decree No. 52682 was
created and promulgated, establishing 15 October as Teacher's Day. In the
meantime, there are different signs of mobilizations in favor of the institutionalization
of the date. The aim of this research is to analyse the celebration of Teacher's Day in
Brazil, from the first initiatives to the official recognition of the date in 1963. For this,
we defined the following specific objectives: to present the history of the teaching
profession, to analyze the celebrations of Teacher's Day in the 1930s and to analyze
the actions promoted in favor of the officialization of Teacher's Day. The research
method is based on the Indicative Paradigm of Ginzburg (1996). To accomplish the
proposal, we analyzed the newspapers from the Hemeroteca Digital collection. We
are based on the understanding of the studies of Brazil and Nascimento (2020). The
concept of intellectuals defined as creators and cultural mediators according to
Sirinelli (2003). In addition, this research is based on the concept of Representations
discussed by Chartier (1991) that underlies the discussions about the intentionalities
that permeate the actions around the celebrations and officialization of the date.
Thus, we found that the first initiatives to commemorate the date were marked by the
presence of intellectuals who, through the influence of their positions, mobilized the
importance of the date. Beginning in the 1940s, debates and campaigns were
developed for the institution of the date, and the teachers joined this movement,
since the date gave notoriety to teachers. Then, despite the celebrations represent
only a symbolic recognition of this profession, teachers understood that the date was
strategic to highlight the category.
